Big data, mostly digital data, is being generated through multiple on-line surveys and repositories. Digital and social media is the main source of generating such data. Analyzing such data according to user needs is a huge task. This is the challenge now a days to organize the data explosion, specially the volume and variety of data. Big data analytics proves to be a major help in organizing and fetching data sets pertaining to user query. The authors, in this chapter, deal with four major services of libraries, wherein time efficiency can be achieved through big data analytics. Authors have focused on thrust areas of library and information science and indicate the benefits of big data analytics for service efficiency.
